Hermes Sandals

Everyone likes the man who gets his work done quick. That's why no one used to like me, I suppose, and the very reason why I'll never let go of my Hermes Sandals. I hear it only takes gysahl greens to make them, but given their price, there's gotta be more to 'em than just some tasty greens!

The Hermes Sandals(エルメスのくつ, Erumesu no Kutsu?), also known as Hermes, Hermes Shoes, Running Shoes, or Sprint Shoes, are a recurring consumable item (early series) and accessory in the Final Fantasy series. They are named after the Greek God of messengers and thieves, Hermes. As an accessory, the Hermes Sandals often grant the wearer permanent Haste status.

The Sprint Shoes give permanent Haste to the wearer. They are a reward in the Gold Saucer, both for winning a Battle Square game by beating all eight opponents in one round then talking to the woman near the entrance of the square, and as a prize in Chocobo Square at classes A and S.

Characters equipped with Sprint Shoes never face away from enemies when the party is back attacked.

The Sprint Shoes grant immunity to the Stop status effect, and a bonus of 20 to Spirit. Sprint Shoes can be found in treasure chests in mission 7-1-3, and received as mission a reward in mission 7-1-6. The shoes can also be bought in Nibel Accessories for 3,000 gil.

In the original version, Hermes Sandals require the Accessories 18 license for 50 LP. They can be bought in Barheim Passage late in the game for 20,000 gil, or made in the bazaar in the Wind Walkers package for 18,000 gil. They give Haste to whichever character has them equipped. Under normal circumstances Slow and Haste would replace each other, but when a character is slowed while equipping the Hermes Sandals, the two effects cancel each other out. There is a glitch that prevents the player from healing a slowed character who has Hermes Sandals equipped from Slow.

The Hermes Sandals is an accessory that grants Haste to a user as long as the user is in HP Critical, and can be acquired by completing mission 34, and by dismantling a maxed out Tetradic Crown. Bituitus from Mission 7 rarely drops Tetradic Crowns.
